  1. Thermodynamics 

The study of the transformation of energy is called thermodynamics. Actually, it deals with energy in its various forms, which include thermal, chemical, electrical, and mechanical, with the restrictions on the transformation of one type of energy in to the other types and with the relation of energy changes to physical and chemical changes.

2.1 Terminology of Thermodynamics

System and Surroundings

System is part of the universe which is arbitrarily set off from the rest of the universe by definite boundaries for the purpose of experimental or theoretical studies. The remainder of the universe is then, in fact the surroundings of the system. The space separating the system from its surrounding is termed as boundary.

Types of Systems

  1. a) Real system In experimental work, the system is called Real.
  2. b) Ideal system In pencil and paper work, the system treated is called ideal. An ideal system is always considered to simplify the thermodynamic problems.
  3. c) Isolated system A system is said to be isolated when it can neither exchange energy nor matter with its surroundings.
  4. d) Closed system A system is said to be closed when it permits passage of energy but not mass, across the boundary.
  5. e) Open system A system which can exchange both energy and matter with its surroundings.

State of System (State variables)

The quantities whose value serve to describe the system completely are called the thermodynamic properties of the system. Once the properties of the system are completely specified, one says that the state of the system is specified. Thus, the defining properties are sometimes called state variables or state properties. Examples of state properties are pressure, volume, temperature and composition. The question now arises as how many variables must be determined to define the system completely. The answer to this question can be obtained by considering the following example.

A homogeneous system consists of a single substance and hence the composition is fixed automatically. The state of a homogeneous system can, therefore, be defined by only three variables:

  1. i) Pressure
  2. ii) Volume and 

iii) Temperature

For a homogenous system of definite mass, these three properties are related to one another by a mathematical equation PV = RT, called equation of state. With the help of this equation (PV = RT) the values of any one of these properties can be determined knowing the values of the other two properties. Therefore, state of a simple homogeneous system may be completely defined by specifying only two of the three variables (i.e.) pressure, temperature and volume. The two variables generally specified are temperature and pressure. These are termed as independent variables. The third variable, generally volume is called a dependent variable because its value depends upon the values of pressure and temperature.

When we are considering a closed system consisting of one or more components, mass is not a state variable.

In order to define the state of a homogeneous system having more than one substance, one must consider and describe each of the phases of the system. For each phase, one must specify the content (i.e.) the amount of each substance present, and two other independent variables.

In order to define a system completely, the state variables are generally (T), Pressure (P) Volume (V) and concentration (n). Besides these there are two more variables. Work (W) and heat (q), which are not state properties. These six variables play an important role in defining chemical systems completely.

Properties of a System: The observable properties of system are of two types:

  1. a) Extensive Properties: There are some properties called Extensive properties whose values are proportional to the mass of the portion of the system or one can say that extensive properties are dependent upon size of the system.
  2. b) Intensive Properties: There are some properties of a system called intensive properties, whose values are independent of the quantity of matter contained in the system.
Extensive Property Intensive Property
Volume Molar volume
No. of moles Density
Mass Refractive index
Free Energy Surface tension
Entropy Viscosity
Enthalpy Free energy per mole, specific heat
Heat capacity Pressure, Temperature, Boiling Point, Freezing Point

2.2 Internal Energy 

It is the energy associated with a system by virtue of its molecular constitution and the motion of its molecules. The contribution of energy due to molecular constitution is known  as cinternal potential energy and the contribution of energy due to the motion of molecules is called internal kinetic energy. Internal energy of a system is given by the sum of two types of energies.

Determination of ΔE: When a reaction is carried out in such a manner that the temperature and volume of the reacting system remain constant, then the internal energy change (ΔE) of the reaction is equal to the heat exchanged with the surrounding.

2.3 Enthalpy 

When we deal certain process in open vessels (at constant pressure). It becomes essential to introduce in place of internal energy, a new themrodynamic function called heat enthalpy. This new function is denoted by H.

 H = E + PV 

The change in enthalpy of a given system is given as follows,

ΔH = H2 – H1

or ΔH = (E2 + P2V2) – (E1 + P1V1) = (E2 – E1) + (P2V2 – P1V1)

or ΔH = ΔE + ΔPΔV

If P is maintained constant

ΔH = ΔE + PΔV

or ΔH = Q

Hence the change in enthalpy of the system ΔH may be defined as the amount of heat absorbed at constant pressure.

2.4 Thermodynamic Process

  1. i) Adiabatic Process: When a process is carried out under such conditions that no exchange of heat takes place between the system and its surrounding, the process is called adiabatic.

Ex: The sudden bursting of a cycle tube. If the process is exothermic the heat evolved will remain in the system and, therefore, the temperature of the system rises and vice versa.

  1. ii) Isothermal Process: The process which occurs at constant temperature is called isothermal. In an isothermal change the temperature is kept constant by adding heat or taking it away from the substance. So in an isothermal process the system exchanges heat with the surroundings.

iii) Isobaric Process: If the pressure of the system remains constant during each step of the change in the state of a system, this process is said to be an isobaric process.

  1. iv) Isochoric process: A process is defined to be isochoric if the volume of the system remains constant during the process.

2.5 First law of Thermodynamics 

Energy may be converted from one form to another, but it is impossible to create or destroy it. There are various ways of expressing the first law of thermodynamics. Some of the selected statements are given below:

  1. i) When work is transformed into heat or heat into work, the quantity of work is mechanically equivalent to the quantity of heat.
  2. ii) Energy of an isolated system must remain constant, although it may be transformed from one form to another.

iii) Energy in one form, if it disappears will make its appearance in an exactly equivalent in another form.

  1. iv) It is never possible to construct a perceptual motion machine that could produce work without consuming any energy.

2.5.1 Mathematical Formulation of the First Law

Suppose a system absorbs a quantity of heat q and its state change form A to B (fig – I). This heat is used up,

  1. i) In increasing the internal energy of the system i.e, ΔE = EB – EA
  2. ii) To do some external work ‘w’ by the system on its surroundings. 

From the first law, we get.

Heat observed  by the system  = its internal energy + work done by the system.

q = ΔE + w …1

2.6 Differential form of the First Law 

For an infinitesimal process, equation (1) takes the form

δq = dE + δw …2

  1. a) Change in internal energy is independent of the path taken. So in mathematical terms, an exact differential is always denoted by a notation d, e.g. dE in equation (2).
  2. b) q and w are not state functions because changes in their magnitude is dependent on the path by which the change is accomplished. Mathematically q & w are not exact differentials and we always write the inexact – differential by δq, δw etc.
  3. c) For a cyclic process, the change in the internal energy of the system is zero because the system is brought back to the original condition.

= 0

or = i.e. the total work obtained is equal to the net heat supplied.

  1. d) In an isolated system, there is no heat exchange with the surrounding i.e. δq = 0

dE + δW = 0

or δw = – dE

The sign convention: According to latest S.I. convention, w is taken as negative if work is done by the system whereas it is taken as positive if work is done on the system. When heat is given by the system to surrounding it is given as negative sign. When heat is absorbed by the system from the surrounding then positive sign is given.

2.7 Heat, Energy, Work

Heat 

Like work, heat is regarded in thermodynamics as energy in transit across the boundary separating a system from its surroundings. However, quite unlike work, heat transfer results from a temperature difference between system and surroundings, and simple contact is the only requirement for heat to be transferred by conduction. Heat transfer ceases when thermal equilibrium is attained. All other forms of energy can be quantitatively converted into work but heat cannot be completely converted into work without producing permanent changes either in the system or in the surroundings. Heat is an algebraic quantity and is symbolised as Q.

The units of heat are those of work and energy. The sign convention used for a quantity of heat Q is opposite to that used for work. Heat added to a system is given by a positive sign, whereas heat extracted from a  system is given negative sign.

Like work Q is not a state function, its work depends on the path which is followed for carrying out the transformation in the state of the system. Heat is, therefore a path dependent quantity.

Energy

It is the capacity for doing work. Whenever, there is a rearrangement of atoms as in chemical reactions or as in changes in the state of matter (e.g. fusion, vapourisation, sublimation, etc.) energy changes are involved. Energy manifests itself in various forms. For example, the kinetic energy of a body is due to its motion and potential energy of a body is due to its motion and potential energy of a body is due to its position in space. These two forms of energy are little importance for chemical system. The energy which is of great significance from chemical point of view is the internal energy of substance.

The energies acquired by a system in a force field like electric, magnetic, gravitational surface etc. are termed as external energies and are usually not considered as part of the internal energy of the system.

Energy is an extensive property i.e., its magnitude depends upon the quantity of material in the system. 

In SI system, the unit of energy is expressed in J or kJ.

Work

In thermodynamics, work is generally defined as the force multiplied by the distance. If the displacement of body under the force F is ds, the work done will be,

δW = Fds

The symbol δW stands for the small amount of work and also the inexactness of the function. Several things should be noted in the definition of work.

  1. a) Work appears only at the boundary of the system
  2. b) Work appears only during a change in state
  3. c) Work is manifested by an effect in the surroundings
  4. d) Work is an algebraic quantity. It is positive if the work has been produced in the surroundings. It is negative if the work has been destroyed in the surroundings.
  5. e) In SI system of units, work is expressed in Joule or Kilojoule 1J = 1 Nm.

Types of work

  1. a) Gravitational Work: The work is said to be done when a body is raised through a certain height against the gravitational field. Suppose a body of mass m is raised through a height h against the gravitational field. Then the magnitude of the gravitational work is mgh.
  2. b) Electrical work: This type of work is said to be done when a charged body moves from one potential region into another. If the charge is expressed in coulombs and the potential difference in volts, then the electrical work is given by QV.
  3. c) Mechanical Work: work associated with change in volume of a system against an external pressure is referred to as the mechanical or pressure-volume work.

Now we shall discuss mechanical work in detail.

Work has been done by the system if a weight has been raised in the surrounding, work has been done on the system if a weight has been lowered.

2.8 Work in reversible process

  1. a) Expansion of a gas 
  1. Suppose n moles of a perfect gas is enclosed in a cylinder by a frictionless piston. The whole cylinder is kept in large constant temperature bath at T°K. Any change that would occur to the system would be isothermal.Suppose area of cross section of cylinder = a sq. cm

Pressure of the piston  = P

Distance through which gas expands = dll cm

Then force (F) = P ×

Work done by the gas  = F × dl P × a × dl

a × dl  = dV

w = P . dV

Let the gas expand from initial volume V1 to the final volume V2, then the total work done(w)  = 

2.9 Work done in isothermal reversible expansion of an ideal gas 

The small amount of work done, δw when the gas expands through, a small volume dV, against the external pressure, P is given by 

δw = – PdV

Total work done when the gas expands from initial volume V1 to final volume V2 will be W =

Ideal gas equation PV = nRT

i.e, P =

Hence W = [ T = constant] 

W = – nRT ln

= – 2.303 nRT log

= –2.303 nRT log 

The –ve sign indicates work of expansion.

Note: 1 Work in the reversible process is the maximum and is greater than that in the irreversible process.

Illustration 1: 70 gms of nitrogen gas was initially at 50 atm and 25°C

  1. a) It was allowed to expand isothermally against a constant external pressure of one atmosphere. Calculate, ΔU, ΔQ and ΔW assuming the gas to behave ideally.
  2. b) Also find out the maximum work that would be obtained if the gas expanded reversibly and isothermally to one atmosphere. 

Solution: a) Amount of gas n = = 2.5 moles 

Initial pressure; P1 = 50 atm

Final pressure  = 1 atm

Since the gas is ideal, ΔU = 0, as the temperature is constant.

The work obtained Δw = P2 (V2 – V1)

P2  =

=  

= 1.5 Kcal

  1. b) The maximum work for its isothermal reversible expansion.

ΔW = nRT ln

= 2.303 × 2.5 × 2 × 298 log = 5.8 Kcal

Exercise 1: Calculate the maximum work done by the system when 2 mole of ideal gas expands from 2.4 dm3 to 5.6 dm3 at 10°C reversibly. Also calculate the heat change. Repeat the above calculations at 110°C.

2.10 Adiabatic Process (Reversible)

An adiabatic change by definition, is one which does not allow any transfer of heat, i.e., q = 0, it follows from the 1st law,

ΔU = – W

dU  = – dW

Let only mechanical work of expansion or contraction is involved, dW = PdV. Moreover,
dU= CVdT

CVdT = –PdV

For a system of 1 mole of an ideal gas, expanding adiabatically and reversibly from temp T1 to T2 and volume V1 to V2, we have 

CVdT =

or .

or

ln =

or

or = K 

Cp – Cv = R

ln

or 

or (γ-1) ( γ = Cp/Cv)

or

or

Substituting  T by

= constant 

PVγ = R × constant = constant

Similarly = constant

TγP1-γ = constant 

Adiabatic work:

W = – CvT = –Cv(T2–T1) = Cv (T1 – T2)

Where T1,T2 are initial and final temperatures.

For 1 mole of gas T = PV/R

Hence adiabatic work

W = Cv =(P1V1 – P1V2)

or w =

Slope of PV curve in adiabatic & isothermal expansion.

For  isothermal expansion of the gas, PV  = K

The slope of the PV curve will be obtained from

For the adiabatic expansion of the gas PVγ = K

P = K/Vγ ; =

In the both the changes the slope is negative, since γ, is greater than 1, the slope in the adiabatic P – V curve will be large than that in the isothermal one.

Illustration  2: A sample of a gas initially at 27°C is compressed from 40 litres to 4 litres adiabatically and reversibly. Calculate the final temperature (Cv = 5 cal/mole)

Solution: Assuming ideal behaviour 

Cp = Cv + 2 = 7 cal / mole

γ = Cp/Cv  = 7/5

If T be the final temperature thus 

T = 300 × (10)7/5-1 

= 753.6°K

2.11 Heat Capacity 

Need for the function: Heat content or enthalpy function is particularly used to measure heat changes accompanying a process at constant volume. It therefore becomes necessary to introduce a new function called heat capacity which relates the heat changes to the temperature changes at constant pressure or at constant volume.

The heat capacity of a system is defined as the quantity of heat required for increasing the temperature of one mole of a system through 1°C. Heat capacity may be given as follows.

C = …(1)

  1. i) Heat capacity at constant volume

By first law of thermodynamics, 

We have

δq = dE + PdV …(2)

on substituting the value of δq in equation (2) We get

C = …(3)

If the volume is kept constant than

CV = …(4)

Hence the heat capacity at constant volume of a given system may be defined as the rate of change of internal energy with temperature.

  1. ii) Heat capacity at constant pressure

If the pressure is held constant, equation (3), becomes as follows.

Cp =

Or Cp =

Hence the heat capacity at constant pressure of a system may be defined as the rate of change of enthalpy with temperature.

2.12 Limitations of first Law of thermodyanamics

  1. This law fails to tell us under what conditions and to what extent it is possible to bring about conversion of one form of energy into the other.
  2. The first law fails to contradict the existence of a 100% efficient heat engine or a refrigerator.

2.13 Second law of thermodynamics

It has been stated is several forms as follows.

  1. i) All the spontaneous process are irreversible in nature.
  2. ii) It is impossible to obtain work by cooling a body below it lowest temperature

iii) It is impossible to take heat from a hot reservoir and convert it completely into work by a cyclic process without transferring a part of it to a cold reservoirs.

  1. iv) Heat cannot of itself pass from a colder body to hotter body without the intervention of external work.
  2. v) It is impossible to construct a machine functioning in cycle which can convert heat completely into equivalent amount of work without producing change elsewhere.
  3. vi) The entropy of universe is always increasing in the course of every spontaneous process.

vii) Spontaneous or natural process are always accompanied with an increase in entropy.

2.14 Efficiency of a Heat Engine

The relationship between W, the net work done by the system and q2, the quantity of heat absorbed at the higher temperature T2, in case of the cyclic process (i.e. the carnot cycle), can be obtained from the following two equations.

W = R (T2 – T1) ; q2 = RT2; W = q2

The fraction of the heat absorbed by an engine which it can convert into work gives the efficiency(η).

η =

The net heat absorbed by the system, q is equal to q2 – q1 and according to the first law of thermodynamics, this must be equivalent to the net work done by the system. Thus,

W = q2 – q1

or = = η.  Since is invariably less than l, the efficiency of a heat engine is always less than 1.

  1. Thermochemistry

Thermochemistry deals with the transfer of heat between a chemical system and its surroundings when a change of phase or a chemical reaction takes place within the system. In general, a chemical reaction can be either exothermic or endothermic. In the former case, heat is released to the surroundings when the reactants at a given temperature and pressure are converted to the products at the same temperature and pressure, and in the latter heat is absorbed by the system, from the surroundings. 

Sign conventions: If the heat is absorbed by the system (q>0) then the reaction is said to be endothermic  and ΔE or ΔH value is given a positive sign. If the heat is evolved (q<0) the reaction is said to be  exothermic, and ΔE or ΔH values is given negative sign.

Standard States:  In the computation of heat of reactions it is a convention to assume that the heat of formation of elements in their standard states is zero. The standard state is taken as 1 atm pressure and at a constant temperature. Standard states for various forms of matter are summarized below:

State Standard State
Gas  Ideal gas at 1 atm and the given temperature 
Liquid  Pure liquid at 1 atm and the given temperature 
Solid  Stable crsytalline form at 1 atm and given  T (e.g. graphite form of carbon, rhombic form of sulphur)

At standard state the heat of reactions are denoted by or at given temperature.

  1. Various Types of Enthalpies of Reactions 
  2. i) Enthalpy of formation : Enthalpy change when one mole of a given compound is formed from its elements.

H2(g) + 1/2O2(g) ⎯→  2H2O(l), ΔH = –890.36 kJ / mol

  1. ii) Enthalpy of combustion: Enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is burnt in oxygen

CH4 + 2O2(g) ⎯→ CO2  + 2H2O(l), ΔH  = –890.36 kJ / mol

iii) Enthalpy of Neutralization:  Enthalpy change when one equivalent of an acid is neutralized by a base in dilute solution. This is constant and its values is –13.7 kcal for neutralization of any strong acid by a base since in dilute solutions they completely dissociate into ions.

H+ (aq) + OH (aq) ⎯→ H2O(l) ΔH = –13.7 kcal

For weak acids and bases, heat of neutralization is different because they are not dissociated completely and during dissociation some heat is absorbed. So total heat evolved during neutralization will be less.

e.g. HCN + NaOH ⎯→ NaCN + H2O ΔH = –2.9 kcal

Heat of ionization in this reaction is equal to (–2.9 + 13.7) kcal = 10.8 kcal

  1. iv) Enthalpy of hydration: Enthalpy of hydration of a given anhydrous or partially hydrated salt is the enthalpy change when it combines with the requisite no.of mole of water to form a specific hydrate. For example, the hydration of anhydrous copper sulphate is represented by 

CuSO4(s) + 5H2O (l) ⎯→ CuSO45H2O, ΔH° = –18.69 kcal

  1. vi) Enthalpy of Transition: Enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is transformed from one allotropic form to another allotropic form.

C (graphite) ⎯→  C(diamond), ΔH° = 1.9 kJ/mol

  1. Laws of Thermochemistry 

For some reactions it is not convenient to measure the heat change in the laboratory. So conventional procedure based on the principle of conservation of energy has been suggested which can be stated as follows:

  1. The heat of formation of any compound is equal in magnitude and of opposite sign to the heat of dissociation of that compound at the given temperature and pressure.

For example, enthalpy of formation of liquid water from its elements hydrogen and oxygen is –285.830kJ mol–1 and the enthalpy of dissociation is  285.830 kJ mol–1. Thus the process can be represented by 

H2(g) + 1/2  O2(g) ⎯→ H2O (l),             ΔH(298 K) = –285.830 kJ

H2O(l) ⎯→ H2(g) +½ O2(g), ΔH (298 K) = + 285.830 kJ

  1. The total enthalpy change of a reaction is the same, regardless of whether the reaction is completed in one step or in several steps. (Hess’s Law of constant heat summation.) It has been experimentally verified and is also a consequence of the law of conservation of energy. It is of particular utility in calculation of the heats of reactions which are difficult for practical calorimetric measurements.

For example : Carbon be converted into CO2 in 1 step 

C(s) + O2(g) ⎯→ CO2(g) ΔH = –94 kcal

Or in two steps 

C(s) + 1/2  O2(g) ⎯→ CO(g) ΔH1 = –26.,4 kcal

CO)(g) + 1/2  O2(g) ⎯→ CO2(g) ΔH2 = –67.6 kcal

According to Hess’s law: ΔH = ΔH1 + ΔH2  = –26.4 –67.6=94 Kcal

  1. Lattice Energy of an Ionic Crystal (Born–Haber Cycle)

The change in enthalpy that occurs when 1 mole of a solid crystalline substance is formed from its gaseous ions.

Step  1: Conversion of metal to gaseous atoms 

M(s) ⎯→ M(g) , ΔH1 = sublimation 

Step 2: Dissociation of X2 molecules to X atoms

X2(g) ⎯→ 2X (g), ΔH2 = Dissociation energy 

Step 3: Conversion of gaseous metal atom to metal ions by losing electron

M(g) ⎯→ M+ (g) +  e , ΔH3 =  Ionization energy 

Step 4: X(g) atoms gain an electron to form M ions

X(g) + e ⎯→ X(g) , ΔH4 = Electron affinity

Step 5: M+ (g) and X (g) get together and form the crystal lattice

M+ (g) + X (g) ⎯→ MX(s)   ΔH5 = lattice  energy 

Applying Hess’s law we get 

ΔH1 + 1/2 ΔH2 + ΔH3 + ΔH4 + ΔH5 = ΔHf (MX)

On putting the various known values, we can calculate the  lattice energy.

  1. Bond Energies 

Whenever a chemical bond is formed energy is released. Conversely, energy is required to rupture a chemical bond. The energy required to break a particular bond in a gaseous molecule is referred to as bond-dissociation energy.

H–OH(g) ⎯→2H(g) + ½O(g) ΔH = 498 kJ

O–H(g) ⎯→H2(g) + ½O2 (g) ΔH = 430 kJ

In such case, bond energy is expressed as the average of the bond dissociation energies of various similar bonds   ΔHO–H = (498 + 430)/2 = 464 kJ mol–1

Hence, bond energy may be defined as the average amount of energy required to break one mole bonds of that type in gaseous molecules.

Thus, the values given in bond energy data can help us in: 

  1. i) Calculating standard enthalpy of reactions
  1. Calculation of bond energies of some specific bond in the molecule 
  1. Variation Of Heat Of Reaction With Temperature 

The heat of reaction depends on the temperature. The relation between the two is known as Kirchoff’s equation.

  1. i) = ΔCP
  2. ii) = ΔCV

ΔCP = molar heat capacity of products – molar heat capacity of reactants (at constant pressure)

ΔCV = molar heat capacity of products – molar heat capacity of reactants (at constant volume)

  1. Bomb Calorimeter 

The calorimeter used for determining enthalpies of combustion known as the bomb calorimeter is shown as Figure. 

This apparatus was devised by Berthelot (1881) to measure the heat of combustion of organic compounds. A modified form of the apparatus shown in Figure consists of a sealed combustion chamber, called a bomb, containing a  weighed quantity of the substance in a dish along with oxygen under about 20 atm pressure. The bomb is lowered in water contained in an insulated copper vessel. This vessel is provided with  a stirrer and a thermometer reading up to 1/100th of a degree. It is also surrounded by an outer jacket to ensured complete insulation from the atmosphere. The temperature of water is noted before the substances  is ignited by an electric current. After combustion, the rise in temperature of the system is noted on the thermometer and heat of combustion can be calculated from the heat gained by water and the calorimeter.

By knowing the heat capacity of calorimeter and also the rise in temperature, the heat of combustion can be calculated by using the expression 

Heat exchange = Z × ΔT

Z–Heat capacity of calorimeter system 

ΔT– rise in temp.

Heat changes at constant volumes are expressed in ΔE and Heat changes at constant pressure are expressed in ΔH.

Also, ΔH = ΔE + ΔnRT

Δn =  gaseous product moles – gaseous reactant moles.

Exercise 2: When 1-pentyne (A) is treated with 4N alcoholic KOH at 175°C, it is converted slowly into an equilibrium mixture of 1.3% 1-pentyne (A), 95.2% 2-pentyne (B) and 3.5% of 1,2-pentadiene (C). The equilibrium was maintained at 175°C. Calculate ΔG0 for the following equilibria.

B ==A ΔG10 = ?

B ==C ΔG20 = ?

From the calculated value of ΔG10 and ΔG20 indicate the order of stability of A, B and C. Write a reaction mechanism showing all intermediates leading to A, B and C [10]

 

Exercise 3: Two moles of a perfect gas undergo the following processes:

  1. a) a reversible isobaric expansion from (1.0 atm, 20.0L) to
    (1.0 atm, 40.0 L);
  2. b) a reversible isochoric change of state from (1.0 atm, 40.0 L) to (0.5 atm, 40.0 L);
  3. c) a reversible isothermal compression from (0.5 atm, 40.0 L) to
    (1.0 atm, 20.0 L).
  4. i) Sketch with labels each of the processes on the same P-V diagram.
  5. ii) Calculate the total work (w) and the total heat change (q) involved in the above processes.

iii) What will be the values of ΔU, ΔH and ΔS for the overall process?

  1. Solution to Exercises

Exercise 1: W = nRT ln; W = (2) (8.314) (283) ln = 3987 J

According to first law of Thermodynamics; Q = ΔE + W

Since ΔE = 0 at constant temperature; Q = W; Q = 3987 J

When T2 = 273 + 100 = 383 K

W = (2) (8.314) (383) ln = 5396 J; Similarly Q = 5396 J

Exercise 2: B = A, ΔG10 = {( 2.303× 8.314×448)log(1.3/95.2)}=15.998 kJ

B = C, ΔG20 = {( 2.303× 8.314×448)log(3.5/95.2)}=12.305 kJ . 

Stability order B > C > A

Exercise 3:
ii) Total work (W) = W1 + W2 + W3

= – PΔV + 0 + 2.303 nRT log

= –1 × 20 + 2.303 × 2 × 0.082 × 121.95 log2

= – 20 +13.86 = –6.13 L atm

Since the system has returned to its initial state i.e. the process is cyclic so ΔU = 0

ΔU = q + W = 0, so; q = – W = 6.13 L. atm = 620.7 J

In a cyclic process heat absorbed is completely converted into work

iii) Entropy is a state function and since the system has returned to its initial state so ΔS = 0. Similarly ΔH = 0 and ΔU = 0 for the same reason i.e. U and H are also state functions having definite values in a given state of a system.

11.1 Subjective 

Problem 1: A Carnot’s engine works between 120°C and 30°C. Calculate the efficiency. If the power produced by the engine is 400 watts, calculate the heat absorbed from the source and rejected to the sink every second.

Solution: Efficiency, η =

Here T1 = 273 + 120 = 393 K

T2 = 273 + 30 = 303 K

η = = 0.229 = 22.9%

Again η =

Thus, heat absorbed from the source,

Q1 = = 1747 watts.

Also

The heat rejected to the sink

Q2 = Q1 ×

= 1747 × = 1347 watts

Problem 2: The enthalpy of neutralisation of ammonium hydroxide by hydrochloric acid is 51.46 kJ mol–1. Calculate the enthalpy of ionisation of ammonium hydroxide.

Solution: i) NH4OH (aq) + H+ (aq) ⎯→ (aq) +_ H2O (l); ΔH° = –51.46 kJ mol–1

  1. ii) H+(aq) + OH (aq) ⎯→ H2O(l); ΔH° = – 57.32 kJ mol–1

iiii) NH4OH (aq) ⎯→ (aq) + OH (aq); ΔH0 = ΔH0 ionisation

On adding (ii) and (iii), we get

NH4OH (aq) + H+ (aq) ⎯→ (aq) + H2O(l)

or Δ H0 = –57.32 + Δionisation

From equation (i), we have

ΔH0 = –51.46 kJ mol–1

Hence (–57.32 + ΔH0ionisation) kJ mol–1 = –51.46 kJ mol–1

or ΔH0Ionisation = + 5.86 kJ mol–1.

Problem 3: If EC – C is 344 kJ mole–1 and EC – H is 415 kJ mole–1, calculate the heat of formation of propane. The heats of atomization of carbon and hydrogen are 716 kJ mole–1 and 433 kJ mole–1 respectively.

3C(s) = 3C(g0; ΔH = 3 × 716 = 2148 kJ

4H2,(g) = 8H(g); ΔH = 4× 433 = 1732 kJ

The bond energies are

2EC – C = 2 × –344 = –688 kJ

8EC – H = 8 × –415 = –3320 kJ

Adding, 

3C + 4H2 = C3H8; ΔHf = 2148 + 1732 – 688 – 3320 = –128 kJ mole–1

(CO2) = kJ /mol = 393.33 kJ/mol

H2(g) + ½ O2(g) ⎯→ H2O (l)

(H2O (l)) = – = –286 kJ mol–1

C6H6(l) + 7.5 O2(g) ⎯→ 6CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)

= 6 × (–393.33) + 3(-286) – 50 = –2359.98 – 858 – 50 –3268 kJ/mol.

Heat evolved = 3268 × kJ = 3645 kJ.

Also calculate the heat required to change 1 gm H2O (l) to H2O (g) 

Solution: H2(g) + 1/2 O2(g) ⎯→ H2O (g) ΔH = –57.0 kcal —————– (1)

H2(g) + 1/2 O2(g) ⎯→ H2O (l) ΔH = – 68.3 kcal——————(2)

Subtracting (2) from (1) 

H2O (l) ⎯→ H2O (g) ; ΔH = 11.3 kcal

Enthalpy of vaporization for H2O = 11.3 kcal

Also 18 g H2O requires enthalpy of vaporization  = 11. 3 kcal

1 g H2O requires kcal = 0.628 kcal

Solution: We have to find Δ H for 

C6H10 + H2 ⎯→ C6H12

Given H2 + 1/2 O2 ⎯→ H2O ΔH = – 241 kJ …(1)

C6H10 + O2 ⎯→ 6CO2 + 5H2O ΔH = – 3800 kJ …(2)

C6H12 + 9O2 ⎯→6CO2 + 6H2O ΔH = – 3920 kJ …(3)

Adding equation (1) and (2) and then subtracting equation  3 

C6H10 + H2 ⎯→ C6H12 ΔH = – 121 kJ

Heat of hydrogenation of cylohexene  = – 121 kJ

Solution: ΔH = ΔE + PΔV

Given ΔE = +0.21 kJ mole–1 = 0.21 × 103 mole–1

P = 1 bar = 1 × 105 pa

ΔV = V(aragonite)V(Calcite)

= cm3 mole–1 of CaCO3

= – 2.77 cm3 = – 2.77 × 10–6 m3

ΔH = 0.21 × 103 – 1 × 105 × 2.77 × 10–6

= 209.72 J

Problem  9: 3.67 litres of ethylene and methane gaseous mixture on complete combustion at 25°C produces 6.11 litre of CO2. Find out the amount of heat evolved on burning one litre of gaseous mixture. The heats of combustion of C2H4 and CH4 are – 1423 and – 891 kJ mole–1 at 25°C.

Solution: Let volume of C2H4 in the mixture = x litre 

Volume of CH4 in the mixture  = ( 3.67 – x) Lit 

C2H4 + 3O2 ⎯→ 2CO2 + 2H2O

CH4  + 2O2 ⎯→ CO2  + 2H2O

From above two equations, it is clear that x litre C2H4 will from 2x litre CO2 and (3.67–x) litre CH4 will from ( 3.67 –x) litre CO2

Hence, 2x + 3.67 – x = 6.11 

x + 3.67 = 6.11

x = 2.44

Volume of CH4 percent in the mixture  = 3.67 – 2.44  = 1.23 litre 

Now, volume of C2H4 in one litre mixture =  =  0.6648 litre 

Volume of CH4  in one litre mixture =

= 0.3352 litre 

Above volumes are there at 25°C

Number of moles of methane  PV = nRT

1 × 0.3352 = n × 0.0821 × 298

= n = 0.0137 mole 

Heat evolved by combustion of methane 

= Number of methane moles × Heat of combustion 

= 0.0137 × 891 = 12.21 kJ

Number of moles of ethylene 

PV = nRT

1 × 0.6648 = n × 0.0821 × 298

n = 0.02717 mole 

Heat evolved by combustion of ethylene 

= 0.02717 × 1423 = 38.68 kJ

Total heat evolved  = 38.68 + 12.21

= 50.89 = 50.9 kJ.

Given; H2(g) ⎯→ 2H(g) : ΔH1 = 218 kJ / mole 

N2(g) + H2(g) ⎯→ NH3(g) : ΔH2 = – 46 kJ / mol 

NH4Cl (s) ⎯→ (g) + Cl(g) : ΔH3 = + 683 kJ / mol H(g) ⎯→ H+(g) : ΔH4 = 1310 kJ / mol

Cl(g) ⎯→ Cl(g) : ΔH5 = – 348 kJ / mol

Cl2(g) ⎯→ 2Cl (g) : ΔH6 = 124 kJ / mol

N2(g) + 2H2(g) + Cl2(g) ⎯→ NH4(s) ΔH7 = – 314 kJ / mol

ΔH = (ΔH1) – ΔH2 + ΔH3ΔH4ΔH5(ΔH6) + ΔH7

Solution: On mixing CaCl2 (aq) and Na2CO3

CaCl2 + Na2CO3 ⎯→ CaCO3 + 2NaCl

Solutions are very dilute and thus 100% dissociation occurs 

Ca2+(aq)+2Cl(aq)+2Na+ (aq) +(aq) CaCO3+2Na+(aq)+2Cl (aq) or  Ca2+(aq)+ + CO32– (aq) CaCO3(s)

ΔH = Σproducts  – Σreactants

– 241.6 kJ mole–1. Calculate the amount of heat evolved by burning 1m3 of CH4 measured under normal conditions.

Solution: Given C+ 2H2 CH4 ΔH = – 76.2 kJ ———- (1)

C + O2 CO2 ΔH = – 394.8 kJ ——— (2)

H2 + 1/2 O2 H2O (l) ΔH = – 241.6 kJ ———- (3)

Multiplying equation (3) by 2 and adding in equation (2) 

C+ 2H2 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O (g) ΔH = – 878 kJ ———- (4) 

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (4) we have 

CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O (g) ΔH = –801.8 kJ

Since 22.4 litres or 22.4×10–3 m3 CH4 on burning gives energy = 801.8 kJ

1m3 of CH4 on burning will  give = 35.79 ×  103 kJ

Heat evolved by burning 1m3 CH4 is 35.79 × 103 kJ

Eqn. (ii) + Eqn (i) – Eqn (iii), we get 

C2H2(g) + H2(g) ⎯→ C2H4(g)

ΔH = –1299.6 –285.8 + 1410.8

Problem 14: In order to get maximum calorific output a burner should have an optimum fuel to oxygen ratio which corresponds to 3 times as much oxygen as is required theoretically for complete combustion of fuel. A burner which has been adjusted for methane as fuel (with x litre/hour of CH4 and 6 x  litre/hour of O2) is to be readjusted for butane C4H10. In order to get same calorific output, what should be the rate of supply of butane and oxygen. Assume that losses due to incomplete combustion etc., are the same for both fuels and that gases behave ideally. Heats of combustion:CH4 = 809 kJ/mol; C4H10 = 2878 kJ/mol.

Solution: CH4 + 2O2 ⎯→ CO2 + 2H2O; ΔH = –809 kJ mol–1

Initial volume/hr x 6x   x   6x

(in litre)

Let the temperature be T and assume volume of 1 mole of a gas is V litre at this condition

V litre or 1 mole CH4 gives energy on combustion = 809 kJ

x litre of CH4 gives energy on combustion = kJ

2878 kJ energy is obtained by 1 mole or V litre C4H10

kJ energy is obtained by = litre C4H10

= 0.281 (x) litre C4H10

Thus butane supplied for same calorific output = 0.281 x litre

C4H10 + ⎯→ 4CO2 + 5H2O; ΔH = –2878 kJ / mole.

Volume of O2 required = 3 × Volume of O2 for combustion of C4H10

= 3 × × volume of C4H10 = 3 × × 0.281 (x) 

= 5.48(x) litre O2

Solution: Here C + O2 CO2; ΔH = –94.05 kcal

C + ½ O2 CO; ΔH = –26.41 kcal

Let a mole of carbon reacts to form CO2 and b moles of carbon reacts to form CO.

Since 12g or 1 mole carbon is used up

a + b = = 1 (1)

a × 94.05 + b× 26.41 = 75 (2)

a = 0.718 i.e. mole of CO2 formed

b = 0.282 i.e. mole of CO formed

Also moles of O2 used for this change = 0.718 + = 0.859

Thus weight of O2 used = 0.859 × 32 = 27.49 gm

————————————————————————

or, –CO2(g) + O2(g) = CO2(g) – 2CO(g) + 136 kcal

         In order to arrive at (1), multiply (3) by 2, and add (4) to it and substract (2) from their sum so we get,

         2C + H2 ¾® C2H2                               DH = +54.86 kcals

         Formation of C2H2 involves atomisation of  2C atoms and absorbing 150 ´ 2 = 300 kcals and would release energy of the order of 93.6 ´ 2 = 187.2 kcals for the formation of two C – H bonds and also release energy for the formation of one C º C bond

               iii)   N2(g) + 3/2H2(g) ¾® 2NH3(g); DH0‑ = –46.0 kJ mol–1

                     On multiplying equation (i) by and equation (ii) by 3/2 and

adding, we get

  1. iv)  N2(g) + 3/2H2(g) ¾® N(g) + 3H(g),    DH0 = 1124.6 kJ mol–1

                     On substracting equation (iii) from (iv), we get (v) NH3 ¾® N(g) + 3H(g)     DH° = 1170.6 kJ mole–1

                     As there are three N – H bonds, in NH3, the average bond enthalpy is obtained by dividing the value DH° from (v) by 3. Hence

         200 ml of 1 M HCl neutralise 400 ml 0.5M NaOH

         \ Meq of acid and base = 200

         i.e., 200 Meq of HCl react with 200 Meq of NaOH to produce heat = DH.

         1000 Meq of HCl + 1000 Meq of NaOH will give heat = 5 ´ DH i.e, heat of neutralization.

         Now heat produced during neutralization of 200 Meq of acid and base = Heat taken up       by Calorimeter  + solution

  1.     The chemical equation is

         Using equation DH = DE + RTDn

         Equating the two routes leading to the formation of PCl3

         DHf = DH1 + DH2 + DH3

         –306 = 314 + 363 + DH3

         DH3 = –983 kJ

         This is energy released on the formation of three P – Cl bonds, hence,

         Also, DH293 K = –8000 cal.
